🎨Create a Custom Monitor

Monitors in monitoro are watching websites and webpages for changes around the clock, sending you alerts and running your automations. For example, a monitor can track a product page and send you an alert every time the price changes.

In this document we will look at creating custom monitors, which let you select custom data from any webpage. If you are looking for ready-made monitors, check out Create an Instant Monitor instead.

To create a monitor, the very first step is to open the webpage you want to start monitoring, then click on the monitoro extension, on Monitor this page and then on Create a new monitor.
